Backpacks

"I started making small passport sized bags while living in Kansas City in the late 80's. There was a great energy about it. I sold to small boutique shops around the country, basically by hand-picking stores that I loved and making personal introductions. David and I moved back to Ohio (my home) in 1992 and started our little Art of the Midwest studio with two cats and about $1,200. Time was spent chopping wood for the 150-year-old cabin/house that we had rented on 190 acres of rural farmland, tending chores, and making art. I started creating surface designs for a friend who went into business as a design rep. in NYC. This I did at night mostly. We loved it." It is Amy's dedication and love for her craft is what makes Amy Butler wallets and bags so awesome. Each design is thought through. Every cool wallet or bag Amy Butler creates is a work of art. These fun wallets are great for daily use.
